Quintero Golf Club

Quintero is a Troon managed course which definitely lives up to expectations. Rees Jones did an excellent job of carving out a great course from the high Sonoran desert. A few tight holes which favor the straight hitters but, generally very generous landing areas. A good approach to the undulating bent-grass greens will hold and then provide a smooth roll to the cup for that birdie putt !

I have played Quintero about a dozen times and never had a bad experience. From the staff in the golf shop to the restaurant, the service is friendly and professional. The environment feels more like a private club and the layout of the course is challenging, but fair.

As far as public courses in the Phoenix area go, this is my top pick and has been for awhile.

We keep coming back to Quintero, they always welcome us, in fact I believe they have the friendliest staff in town and we golf at many courses including Legend Trail, We-Ko-Pa, Estancia and Gray Hawk. The course is always well maintained, a challenge to play making it very interesting, pace of play is great, we are never held up. We belong to a private club in Northern NV, and I can honestly say my golf experience at Quintero (a public course) is equal to if not better than my private course. I highly recommend Quintero.

Loved the course, great layout, variety of challenging holes - but the round was ruined by the almost 6 hour round. After the first 3 holes (which took over an hour) the course marshall came by and said it was slow because they had a big group of 24 guys playing and "they were serious golfers", I'm not even sure what that means. Finished the round in 5 hours and 40 minutes. The pro shop acknowledged the problem and I will give them credit they gave me a rain check, which I won't be able to use because I'm from out of state. So beware its a looong drive to the course and it makes a long day.

Great golf course. Layout was excellent. Conditions were less than expected, but the course was closing the next day for overseeding. The golf staff was very friendly and accommodating. The pace of play was very slow, with multiple groups waiting on the tee boxes of the par 3's and 5's. Although there was a marshall to help the pace of play, he was more interested in looking for golf balls in the waste areas than assisting with play. I am looking forward to playing it again soon under better conditions and circumstances..

I enjoyed this course very much, it was to bad the pace of ply was very very slow.

Look forward to playing it again on a better day.

They were closing the next day for over seeding so a lot of things may have been off, however I will be back to enjoy this course at its peak!

The staff was extremely friendly. Great wings. My only gripe was with the design of thr course. Impossible to walk. Also, there was a par 5 on the front that my group had to hit 8 irons off the tee. Par 5s where you cant hit driver or 3 wood iare ridiculous.

I absalutely love this course and the layout. It's getting close to overseed so I understand that the grass was a little dry and dead in places.

The greens rolls true and fast.

Still one of my favorite courses in the west valley of Phoenix.

I would recommend this course to everyone.

Quintero is a challenging course. The fairways are wide, but a miss into the desert is penal and bunkers are everywhere. The staff is super friendly. Follow the directions closely as it is hard to find.

Despite being the end of the summer this course was still in great condition.

We were a threesome paired up with one of the course's original members - he provided some help on how to navigate the course and some history.

The greens were the best I've seen in Arizona, and the course conditions overall were fantastic.

Other than #9 green and a 4 hour 15 minute round this was as good of an experience as can be expected. 3 of the 4 par 3's had dramatic drops to greens. The fairways, tees, and greens were exceptional. The fairways were wider than I was expecting. There was GPS on the carts. Choose the right set of tees for your first time here and I guarantee you will have a good time. Staff was exceedingly helpful. Can't wait to go back although overseeing is only a week or 2 away.

I had the privilege of playing this great layout on Labor Day and enjoyed it. The pace was a little slow as the holes are far from each other, the first tee from the pro shop is a mile, and the restaurant has great food, however, the ambience is lacking but the service and food makes up for it. The greens were lush, however, no one fixes ball marks. Hands down one fun course to play and make sure you call for directions as gps won't take you there!!!

It took 5 1/2 hours to play 17 holes. Not good !!

There should have been a marshall out there as the group in front of us was a full hole behind. We had to stop playing after 17 due to a time commitment, but should have finished if a marshall was there. Otherwise a beautiful course.

Great course off the beaten track. Great course condition, you will need a good tee ball, large greens, and true putting. Multiple tee boxes will help navigate the difficulty factor. It's a must play course, and especially before the high season rates.

Absolutely the best. The views, the course, and the staff are awesome. Love this course.

Quintero is an immaculate place. The greens are fast and true, the fairways perfect (and remarkably even a bit firm), the rough excellent, the tee boxes in good form. The views are incredible

Unfortunately, the course is a penal slog. Some people like this or think this is what golf should be. I'm not one.

Everyone who works here and maintains this course is great. They do a first rate job. I hate to disparage the facility. But ultimately for me it's about the course and I just don't have any kind words for the work of Rees Jones here.
